If you want to contribute, it is good to first familiarise yourself with our existing design work.

NB: Primary the fonts we use are:

Issues?

You can start by looking through the good first issues label. Also, you might want to contribute to a particular aspect of design that you’re most proficient in … don’t worry we’ve got you! Each design task is given a label of the type of design work required to complete that issue UI/UX, graphics, design-documentation.

Yes! 💪🏽 seen what you’d love to help with?

Just start, you don’t need approval from anyone. Once you have something ready for review, drop a comment and someone will attend to you ☺️.
